He fought in the Second World War in 1939, in Europe, where he was mentioned in despatches. He gained the rank of Major in the service of the 10th Hussars and 23rd Hussars. He was admitted to Royal Company of Archers. He gained the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel in the service of the Northamptonshire Yeomanry.
William Rory Alexander Stirling (son of Archibald Hugh Stirling and of his first wife, née Charmian Montagu-Douglas- Scott [herself the daughter of Lord George Montagu-Douglas-Scott, son of the 7th Duke of Buccleuch and Queensberry]) was engaged to marry Venezuelan heiress Vanessa Neumann (formerly linked with Mick Jagger, daughter of the late Miguel Neumann, of Caracas, and Mrs Antonia Donnelly Neumann, of New York) during the summer. However, it has been reported that the engagement is now off. (updated 31 May 2004)
